New Delhi - At this rate, Beep will also be banned in Indian cinema theatres in the near future.

A new list of English and Hindi cuss words issued by the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) covers most of the popular, but unspoken, unheard, abuses. However, it also includes some interesting ones like 'Haramzada' which seems to be popular even among some of our politicians.

While we cannot reproduce the list here for obvious reasons, we can tell that it has all the usual suspects and some unusual ones. Some words which are perfectly parliamentary, but have 'dual uses' have also been included in the list. So, you cannot use the word 'Patana' in a Hindi movie, or the word screw in an English one.
